Breathe, you're in Trentino
Leisurely enjoying the wonders of nature, exploring the Alpine woods, valleys, rivers and lakes.
Why cycling aficionados love Trentino
Every climb is an adventure. Every corner that you round, every bump in the road, brings you closer to your goal. Cycling uphill is a crescendo of sensations.
Cycling is not just about great sporting accomplishments or putting yourself to the test against a competitor or even against the clock: it’s about journeying for the sake of pure personal pleasure. Breathe in the scent of the fir trees as you cycle through nature, feasting your eyes on green pastures, blue skies or the reassuring immensity of the hills, before the road finally levels out and the climb is complete.
The end of the climb is the perfect moment to admire the destination you’ve reached, pausing to appreciate the simple pleasures: the company of other cyclists, the fresh air blowing up from the valley, the feel of the asphalt, the sound of your own breath. When you cycle in Trentino, it’s nature that sets your rhythm.
Lake Molveno - Deep deep blue
A natural oasis away from the city, surrounded by the Dolomites. We are within a majestic natural setting comprising the Brenta Group mountain range, and the Monte Gazza and Paganella massif, precisely 40 kilometers from Trento. Lake Molveno is an Alpine lake of natural origin that in 2021 was named Italy’s most beautiful lake by Legambiente and the Italian Touring Club, for the quality of its waters, beaches and services. The town of Molveno, which was awarded the Orange Flag by the Touring Club, is to the north of the lake.
Families will find a real beachfront resort amidst the mountains.
Sports enthusiasts can choose from windsurfing on the lake, a game of tennis, a boat or pedal boat trip, a canoe outing, a stand-up paddleboarding course, a swim in the Olympic-size pool or a walk along the lake's shores.
Dolomites - World Heritage Site
The Dolomites are a mountain range lying in the eastern section of the northern Italian Alps. What makes these mountains so special is the fact that they are essentially composed of dolomite rock. This gives the Dolomites their pale color, making them so fascinating and mysterious, but also causing enrosadira (alpenglow).
What can you do in the Dolomites?
Obviously, many people go to the Dolomites to ski. The slopes are very well-equipped and the vistas make them one of the most popular destinations for skiers from all over the world. But it brings you more! In summer, the Dolomites offer hundreds of hiking paths, for beginner and expert. Many cyclists also choose the Dolomites. While mountain bike lovers can unleash their passion in one of the many high-altitude bike parks, those who prefer road cycling can tackle the Dolomite ascents that have made cycling history.
